The kings got great looks they didn’t knock them down they’ll fall eventually fall loved the fight tho despite shots not falling
Scott Foster is crooked. Sometimes you can just tell by a person's face. Lmao
oh oh , mats upset : )
weve upset mat again : )
It actually does make sense that we're not good at threes. Our 3 top players are each known for not being good three point shooters over the totality of their careers. Lol. Fox had one good season out of 7. Sabonis has never been a volume 3-pt guy by any stretch. Derozan's lack of threes goes without saying. Monk is 35% for his career. Keegan had one year at 40%, then got a little more buff, then had one year at 35%. Huerter is pretty much our only guy who has a career long track record of being a high caliber three point shooter, but, news flash, he hasnt knocked them down consistently for any significant stretch of games since MARCH OF 2023
I wish we would stop saying "they'll eventually drop." It seems like a weird coping mechanism.
Bad 3pt isnt main reason kings lost it. From the start team looked sloppy and lacked efford. At home. In game 8 of season. You have to have plan b and plan c before game. There were none. Lac shot 47% from deep. And still was kinda a close game. You have to find a way to win such ugly games. Derozan had a bad game and still played like 40 mins. Why not to give some of his minutes to monk? Why not to try doug when you cant hit a shot? Sabonis had 9/10 from 2. Why not to ask him shoot more?
So many talks about that off rebounding and while you shoot 3/26 you have 6 off rebounds.. if you cant hit a sh.. then at least play hard.. this team doesnt look as serious and it looks dont even try to be such. I am starting to think this team (coach included) cant be fixed.
I watched a Harden highlight reel and got called for a foul. Foster is likely involved with draftkings, fanduel, betmgm. Crazy that betting is normalized in American sports nowadays. I am only 30, and I feel this shit has got to go. It is crazy. Jackson Rancheria hats for all the kings fan, come bet and lose money. This shit needs to be regulated. It is crazy.
This was generationally bad shooting. Its actually impressive
Don’t blame the referee when your can’t shoot!!!! It’s a Kings man
Seems like the coaching staff isnt great. bad 3pt shooting, zero bench, no development, this Kings time strengthens one area but degrades in another area.
Lyles looks lost out there. Even when he's dapping teammates on timeouts, he doesnt look he wants to be there or is out of it. ive never had a groin injury but did they accidentally cut off his balls or something? lol He used to be a dawg
Please for the love of God start Keon Ellis. He is this teams best defender by a mile
RIP Brian Wheeler
As much as I love demar derozan. While I feel like it’s not his fault, but teams historically 3pt% goes significantly down whenever Derozan is acquired on the team
Trade Fox.
Citing court documents and phone records it obtained…… Donaghy placed 134 calls to referee Scott Foster between October 2006 and April 2007, the period during which he has confessed to betting on games or passing on game information to gamblers."
That's not all of why they lost. They shot poorly and the Clippers play a cynical brand of basketball that I don't think anyone else does. I imagine their walk throughs have "draw fouls" beginning, middle and end. It gross and somewhat effective. Like a Trump campaign.
Bad team
If sacramento will not going to change their lineup pretty sure they will not going to reached playoffs again. Just take a look at the teams in the west Rockets, memphis, dallas, gsw and minnesota all this teams improved significantly and I don’t think kings can beat any of this teams. Kings management put that on record thanks
Kings new identity: slow half court team; free throw team; mid range team.
Kings old identity: fast pace team; fast break team; 3pt team.
Clippers are lowkey impressive this season
The lack of depth is the perfect storm….Devin Carter being out, Mitchell being traded and Lyles playing bad all converging to make a lack of depth. Plus nobody from the last few drafts doing much. Colby Jones and others. I still think the team will be fine. It’s going to be a rough patch though.
Keegan Murray needs to stop shooting threes
"A friend of Trey Lyles." Matt, you're a friend of everyone in the Kings organization. GET RID OF LYLES. PLAY JONES OR BRING UP SKAL AT LEAST
Skims, really? I’m not supporting Kim Kardashian. No way no how.
"Unwatchable"? Sacramento has been like that since last year, if you're a fan, just tune in to the last 5 minutes. If they are still in the game then, keep watching. Otherwise, tune in to a more entertaining game or show.
"Unwatchable"? That means the Kangz of Sacramento are at it again.
Like I said, "Hard Work Is A Habit". It is a tireless effort. It does not turn on and off.
Then again, that habit is in the person's DNA. It is in his character to fight from start to finish, no matter the outcome.
"Unwatchable"? That 3PT shooting, indeed. Like I said so many times, Sacramento is a jump-shooting team – "Let It Fly" remember? If that is the mandate from the coach, who can blame them? I'll let that thing fly, too, no worries.
